Portuguese classes resume

The second term of Portuguese classes started last week, and I am oh so glad. This class is bigger than the last one, about 10 people instead of 5. We have a pretty good mix of people, Australian, Swiss, English, German, me (the only American), and 4 Koreans. This time, class only meets 2 days a week, so it will last me until I leave. I feel kind of disappointed that I will only have finished basic II, but I guess it doesn´t really matter.

Last night Zack and I went to see Norbit, the latest Eddie Murphy movie. As with most of his movies, it was kind of dumb, but a good laugh. Sometimes you just have to see a stupid movie.

I finished accounting with a B recently. For that I am exceedingly grateful. At first I thought maybe I should be the world's best accountant, but then I decided never to take accounting again. Some things only need be tried once :).

Tonight we are going to a futeball game, so that should yield some good pictures. I really like soccer games here and wish we had some nearby at home. I wish Americans liked soccer more.

That's about all for now, I'll have some pictures up soon.

Hi Caroline,

How you doin?? (spoken like Norbit's beloved.) That was the one funny thing I walked away with from the movie. My daughter and I say it all the time.

This is James' secretary, Alissa. I just love viewing your blog. I've never actually gotten into the whole blog thing but it's interesting. I feel as though I am traveling vicariously through you. The places seem to get more beautiful as you go along.

Congratulations on the job! That's excellent. I hope that things work out well for you and Jake.

Sorry, but I must go now. Take care.

Caroline, I just realized that I said "Jake" and I meant to say "Zack". In addition to your father, I work for another gentleman named Jake. Guess my thoughts were on my work. Please pardon my mistake Zack.
